Etihad Racing In Singapore F1


Our Cargo GSA principal Etihad Airways was in town for Singapore F1. Smell of burnt rubber still lingering in the air with the weekend zipped by at 300km/hr!!

Etihad sponsored Ferrari driven by Kimi Raikkonen came in 10th. Comments from him:

I couldn't do any better. The car was sliding everywhere and I had no grip. In the final part, with the softer tyres, the situation improved a bit, but by then it was too late. I closed up to Nakajima and, a few times, I tried to risk a passing move, but here it's really difficult to overtake unless the guy in front makes a mistake. I don't expect the situation to be much different next week in Suzuka: it is a very demanding track for the car, from an aerodynamic point of view and we are lacking in this area. Having said that, I will be trying my hardest.

Suggest that you use softer tyres for Suzuka as well, Kimi!!!
